Shelley moore capita put out a statement yesterday. The first sentence of the statements i did not come to washington to hurt people. I did not come to washington to hurt people. That is the democrats bumper sticker. Maria well, thats a talking point. Dagen shes following the Elizabeth Warren playbook. It is blood money. Dagen shes a republican. Her constituency got her elected and shes playing to that. Shes a moderate republican. It shows the great divide in terms of the centrists and conservatives and where they are. They did lose what could have been and now what you see in centrists republicans might be the Winning Coalition to get a bill done. They really come to the table im not. They are having these conversations. To some of these republicans get primary in elections coming up next year. That is one of those subtle and not kill the bill to put labels on people against david. We know theyre on the votes there for repeal right now. It is putting a target on their backs. Thats a good point. During another conversation, Peter Vazquez with us. The hearing this morning on taxes. The house ways and Means Committee kevin brady with this year.

The white house is confirming President Trump of a second previous acknowledge conversation with Vladimir Putin in hamburg germany. The leaders and their spaces. Hours after more than two or formal sit down because the two leaders. Mainstream media reports describing discussion is quote, unquote the meaning. Fake news stories and invited by the chancellor of Germany Press note. On he goes. More and more dishonest with leaders in germany. Fox news contributor to the public. Good to see you. You see those pictures of the g20 at a table nec person sitting next to melania triumphing donald trump the president. How is this a meeting . How dare the president that next to his wife seated next to Vladimir Putin. The question is to make the seating chart. It was clearly on the schedule assuming you between g20 liters. 2016 when the media tried to nail down attorney general Jeff Sessions for allegedly secretly meeting with the Russian Ambassador that was the public about for lots of people who passed by. When it comes to jumping the shark on issues like this with the private meaning when it was clearly a dinner. Donald trump didnt just talk to Vladimir Putin that night. Theyre not hearing about those reports. I dont fully understand this is a conversation at the table which everybody had where did they go aside and have a site conversation. They were sitting at the table together. Maria a secret meeting. So dishonest. This is where you us to the white house having to respond. But with the ticktock that happened during the dinner . That is where it might go. Dont you think in terms of a communication standpoint, the white house having to talk about more details. That is one of the complaint to the New York Times story that there is no official record in the exact official timeline between what the white house is saying and what the reporting insane. It was an hourlong conversation. The white house is saying it was much shorter than not. Just be entered. He stood there for an hour. Was he standing up . He said down. Seated next to Vladimir Putin, who sat her next to Vladimir Putin . He went over and sat between them so you happen to have this conversation with Vladimir Putin. According to the reporting, other World Leaders who are quoted or people who werent there thought it was a very strange exchange. I think the white house could be helpful in the sense of providing more details about what was said, what conversations they were having to prove it is happening more than dinner at a meeting. One of the concerns was the only other person involved in the conversation was a russian translator. There is no one on the american side keeping a record of it. Of a city speak with . Anybody as he walked to the bathroom as he was going back to his room . Did he see the italian president . The president focused on the handshake between the president and prudent. Theyve checked every single body language between the two of them. The strangest coverage if the president job to talk to the foreign leaders on a daily basis. Its overblown. Cameras there obviously we see coverage of this dinner. I think it is hypersensitivity coming from the media. An amazing reaction. Mainstream media and cnn on the attack after the second conversation between President Trump and putin broke. Watch this. It makes you wonder what the Unfinished Business that the president decided he needed to transact after his initial meeting . We dont know the answer to that. We may never know the exact answer to that because we have no record. Does anybody believe this . Yeah, the media believes it is their job to continue proving the russian line. It now, the American People are tired with the story. In terms of the Mainstream Media, they are focusing on every single possible detail. We saw this ceasefire in syria. They need to make progress in the area of russia. It is a superpower with Strong Influence in the middle east regions. I wont President Trump to talk to pollutants on the issue. When we got the formal meaning, what went on in the actual formal meeting . Did he challenge in entering the middle eastern prayer . Did he challenge him going into ukraine, crania . Did he challenge meddling in the election. This is what we want to know. What were the real issues in the formal meeting . The storyline as he did challenge him twice on meddling in the u. S. Election two the pushback is that he didnt challenge him robustly enough. Its hard to know exactly what the body language was. Im talking the formal meeting, the one that was two and half hours. The president did an interview with the christian broadcast news and discussed we had a very substantial meeting. We had a ceasefire in syria which by the way and the g20 what the undisclosed meeting. They are not focusing on the results of what has happened over the past week in syria, which is a ceasefire that came out of the formal meeting. The president discussed the Vladimir Putin is going to do what he needs to do and i would do with the best interest of the United States and we have a Good Relationship with donated dialogue. Thats a really good point. Throughout the campaign he thought he could get along with putin. They sat down at dinner. Thats what developing a relationship is. Sit down at a dinner with some untapped event. In my mind the problems is if they went away and have a private conversation. If it was at the table. Remember, going from past president of past president , that has always been complicated. Whether it be president obama in the tense relationship with putin, george w. Bush saying ive seen the solar putin. I was trying to figure out a very complicated figure. President trump needs to get to know this guy really understand who is up against. I think that is very clear he needed to congress coming out of the meeting. That was one meeting alone with very complicated details in terms of issues related to russia in the United States. Final thoughts in terms of where this goes. Are we going to hear about this ad nauseam on the Mainstream Media that there is a secret meeting and we are still trying to figure what was said . Kanwar spoke on Vladimir Putin to testify and talk about what happened during the meeting. It will be launched into what happened. Maria great conversation. Katie can attend event weighing in.

Details unreported merger talks with Discovery Communications and Scripps Networks. Big deal. Well tell you about it. Justin b. Birdsong sorry in the most extreme song ever. Which took over the best spot later this hour. Rays always been different. Last year, he said he was going to dig a hole to china. At t is working with farmers to improve irrigation techniques. Remote moisture sensors use a Reliable Network to tell them when and where to water. So that farmers like ray can compete in big ways. China. Oh. He got there. Thats the power of and. I knew at that exact moment, whatever it takes, wherever i have to go. Im beating this. My main focus was to find a team of doctors that Work Together. When a patient comes to ctca, theyre meeting a team of physicians that specialize in the management of cancer. Breast Cancer Treatment is continuing to evolve. And i would say that ctca is definitely on the cusp of those changes. Patients can be overwhelmed. We really focus on taking the time with each individual patient so they can choose the treatment appropriate for them. The care that ctca brings is the kind of care ive wanted for my patients. Being able to spend time with them, have a whole team to look after them is fantastic. I empower women with choices. Its not just picking a surgeon. Its picking the care team, and feeling secure where you are. Surround yourself with the team of Breast Cancer experts at Cancer Treatment centers of america. Visit cancercenter. Com breast Appointments Available now. Maria welcome back. A dear on the horizon. Scripps networks over a possible merger. Scripts of the Parent Company of the food network and hdtv. Jon hilsenrath with it here. These two have talked before. Right. This is to content companies trying to come together to navigate a very fast changing media environment. Youve got netflix dominating on streaming in the Cable Operators in the position of transition talking about coming together to give themselves more market power in environment where it is not clear where content is going to come from. Maria especially because the at t time warner deal is on the horizon. We will see all the studios happening in entertainment. Dagen am also curious because this is the third time discovery has approached scripts which is controlled in the family trust. It is not different than the last two times. At different in that the media is landscape is changing. The logic of this fund is you have to nonfiction. Dagen i love how they refer to it as nonfiction. Reality stuff coming together, building their brand off of it. A look for a match against digital. I know that insert by the time warner deal on the horizon. The digital landscape. Getting these companies together. Theres a lot of content in hdtv. Rhea shows on the fox news channel, so we look at the ratings and these are some of the highest rated shows and all of these now perks. They can launch their own platform and control the delivery rather than relying on one or two content delivery providers. You can rely on yourself at least digitally. What i like about this is business to content providers trying to strengthen their core competence as opposed to content getting together with delivery. Weve seen with aol time warner come in the classic example of this can make a very optimistic when you make content delivery and tell your content through one pipeline. Like the idea to content providers getting stronger. Dagen in creating their own delivery platform. One large app that people download and its not in their content, wouldnt be as easily accessible. Maria the content and delivery. This is not the only merger. The Food Division of the group. Over 4 billion. Frenchs mustard, franks red hot hot status. It has not been strong this year. These two deals on the table. Right. Again, another example of two companies with core competence coming together. These seem to be strategic mergers as opposed to merger is being driven because Interest Rates are low in people want deals wherever they can get them. Stock market is high. We will see if that is enabling. It also points in this world, bigger is better. Amazon, google, companies that are dominating the stock market these days. If they had few as they could manage a company like jeff bezos. Maria one way or want to point out which is a different look at the stock market. This is the truck market trump economy. Investors are betting on what will come out of washington. A strong market in the universe could help President Trump above anon to swirling around russia. His scandal with monica lewinsky. It made people think the economy was day, stock market was strong. It made people ignore the salacious details. It still helps the president. It is on the euphoria that had early in the year that trump was going to be too obvious reforms reforms. The market right now going on at sun. Decent earnings growth, economy gangbusters are producing good growth, job growth. The market is pointing to a healthy economy cannot euphoria about an agenda. Itll be interesting to see im not passing the Health Care Reform, what impact it could have on the stock market. Absolutely. Insurance companies saying we dont know how to plan because the fact republicans have not been able to get it together. Maria you have taxes in place the tax Capital Formation still in the obamacare plan. The additional payroll tax which destroyed 30,000 jobs over a threeyear period in the mandate on employers which hurt job creation. One of the challenges republicans face now as they move from Health Reform to tax reform is do they take the tax pieces and put them in the tax . Theres a trillion dollars worth of tax changes that they wanted to do there. The pool of money is is a diabetic on is a bad day, so something will give in terms of how much they can give back. They can address the taxes. The obamacare taxes and tax reform bill. Repealing just the obamacare taxes would be so costly that it limits what else they would do and tax reform. Maybe theyve touched the medical devices in terms of this are taxes for payroll taxes for the wealthy investment. Which is why they kept it in. We will take a break. Well talk about tackling tax reform with one Small Business owner a
